Trump’s pardon of violent anti-abortion activists is deeply personal for Julie Burkhart. She worked at a clinic targeted with attacks in 1991, which led to the creation of the FACE Act.
“He’s proven our fears are valid,” she says. “I hurt for the women who just need good, sound healthcare.” #Velshi

Welcome to the new American oligarchy: Trump’s rise was decades in the making.
Billionaires and mega-corporations are driving policy at the expense of democracy – an “absolute seizure,” as @ThomHartmann@mstdn.social puts it. #Velshi

Now that Republicans have taken power in Washington, there's an effort to re-write the history of the Jan. 6 insurrection. “People saw it. They believe it," says Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS). “What we have right now is the Donald Trump retribution process on steroids.” #Velshi

Amb. John Bolton says “there is no question” Iran may take action against him after Trump revoked his secret service protection as part of his first week of retribution. “He just doesn’t like to be criticized”

Enrique Tarrio, fmr. Proud Boys chairman, told my colleague Paula Ramos those who held J6 rioters accountable “need to feel the heat.” Tarrio is one of some 1,500 insurrectionists pardoned – record wiped & gun ownership rights restored. Paola joins me at 11aET on her J6 pardon report. #Velshi

Trump’s pardoning of anti-abortion attackers sends a clear message: in America, intimidating & harassing women seeking care – & professionals who provide life-saving services – is fair game. Just ask Julie Burkhart, whose Wyoming clinic was set on fire in 2022. She joins me at 10aET. #Velshi

Asylum seekers & refugees do not threaten America’s sovereignty. But one of President Trump’s executive orders would have you believe otherwise. It’s a fear tactic to justify military use at the border #Velshi

Democracy is hard work, says historian Jon Meacham, and often “counter cultural to how human beings are arranged.” Politicians “act on incentive,” so if you like something, let them know, because “people who want them to do the wrong thing are applying that pressure.” #Velshi

In the final weeks of his presidency, Joe Biden commuted the sentences of more than 4,000 non-violent drug offenders, and pardoned others. Today, he pardoned Kemba Smith Pradia, who has been called “the poster child” of harsh mandatory minimum sentences for non-violent drug offenses. #Velshi
